(Poughkeepsie, NY) -- An alleged bank robber returned to the scene of the crime and was arrested.

Employees at the Citizens Bank Branch on Vassar Road contacted Town of Poughkeepsie Police when they spotted 74 year old Richard Fuhrmann of Highland in the bank’s parking lot. Fuhrmann allegedly had tried to rob the same bank in February of last year. During that incident a man entered the bank and attempted to rob a teller. The man left the bank on foot with no proceeds.

During the latest incident, the suspect left the scene but was later located and taken into custody. Fuhrmann is facing attempted robbery charges.
